This is one of the places where our new spoiler policy (whichever it is) will need to be vigilantly enforced. Gina is listed as having appeared in Resurrection Ship, which of course has not aired yet. --Fang Aili 16:02, 13 September 2005 (EDT)

We also need to standardize names. We have "Coztanza", "Kat / Katraine", "Sekou Hamilton", etc. I would advocate first last just like the article titles -- it took me a second to figure out who "Conoy" was. --Redwall 23:18, 15 September 2005 (EDT)

Why does someone keep on removing the entries for Downloaded regarding Leoben and Simon. Even if they are doubles, I believe they are intended to be those characters. I can't concieve of any point for introducing new Cylons in the background who look sorta like two we already know, but are not, and furthermore, not telling us about them. The fact that they don't have any dialogue or anything (which might make it clearer that it was a double), implies that they are the same models. --mojorisng1985 18:07, 25 February 2006 (EST)

We know as fact that they are indeend intended to represent Simon and Leoben, from RDM's podcast, but nonetheless in terms of keeping track of actors this doesn't count, etc. And "why does someone" keep doing that: check the history page; the reasons are in the summary sentence for the edits.--The Merovingian 19:07, 25 February 2006 (EST)
But the pages aren't about the actors playing them, they are about the characters. If Simon appears in more than one episode, he is a recurring character, even if the actor is different. The name of the page was "recurring characters", not "recurring actors". If the purpose of the page is to "keep track of the actors", than perhaps someone should change the name of the page to "List of Recurring Actor Apperances."
